Omg, check this Elric of Melniboné cosplay from 1987

Nobody tells you that the best part of Moby Dick is the bit where they just wander around looking for good chowder. Hella relatable, chowder is my favorite soup

difficulty scheduling the follow-up session is also true to its inspirations

Classicstober day 10: Hekate 💃🏻🖤🌿🐾

Odysseus and Athena have the most interesting relationship in the Odyssey bc it's the only one that doesn't feel formalized; everything else is a web of kinship, marriage and hospitality obligations, and then Athena is like "I love this crazy bastard because you never know what he's gonna do next!"

I reiterate my opinion that Disney should do a Star Wars series focused on a single rebel capital ship, its crew and fighter wing, running from just before the Battle of Scarif to the Battle of Endor (and that the correct ship type would be a Nebulon-B frigate).

The official movie for all us white bois with motion

[phone unusable because of so many scam calls and texts, leaders from Chuck Schumer to Donald Trump hyping a UFO coverup] Why is this such a low trust society??

Watching Aronofsky's Noah rn. I Forgot how strange this movie is (in a good way). It reminds me a lot of other Acid Fantasy movies like Excalibur or The Green Knight

I like the part of the Odyssey at the Phaeacian court where Homer has Odysseus turn to the camera and say: "Now, we've all been having a lot of fun here today, but let's remember who the REAL heroes are---the hardworking bards and harpers in your own neighborhood. Remember to leave a tip, kids."

@nycsanitation.bsky.social I’d like to report a sweep

I don't know why but I somehow know in my heart of hearts every mass murder, genocide, and stomachache of the last 100 years would have been avoided if they just picked green instead of red red is so angry. no way the green soviets get stalin. no way hitler rises to power in green soviet world

I think there’s something kinda late Soviet about how America just doesn’t believe in its own political project anymore.

Fallen Angels (1995) Written and directed by Wong Kar-wai

The root of this issue is TV has spent like two decades now pretending to not be TV The absolute upper tier of serialization one should indulge in is The Sopranos, and even that is a bit much. Bring back 22 episode seasons with no bullshit storyline you gotta follow

People on this site really aught to trade in the dime store Marxism for some Thomas Ligotti and just come to terms with things have basically always been bad. It's just the nature of the world

How it feels to drop a heavy trash bag several floors down a garbage chute

*looking out the window, waiting for my cheeseburger to be brought to my door* I am more oppressed than the most miserable people who ever lived.

They announce this the day after I started playing KCD the first time too (if this hypothetical LOTR game is as cool as Kingdom Come it will be a real cool game)

Happy anniversary to one of the best films of the 21st century

Feel like this should be put in golden letters at the top of every Medieval Blusesky post

Remember the amazing future of VR?

30 years ago today, Bart Simpson got the “dud” while playing a game of Mystery Date with Milhouse and his parents. #TheSimpsons episode “Summer of 4 Ft. 2” first aired May 19, 1996.

The first of the Simpsons episodes that I call the "Hey guys, The Simpsons meet X!" episodes. Probably my least favorite of the recurring storylines

RIP Tom Kane. Your voice shadowed me throughout my childhood in countless different roles, so I will focus on a minor ass one you had in KOTOR, as the insane racist space klansman that you can tell off with Mission and Zalbar. Fun times, and a great voice actor. Hope he rests well. #kotor, #tomkane

RIP Tom Kane So many great performances but Professor Utonium is the best of the best to me. The punchline to this scene has been a part of my lexicon for ages.

Playing Kotor II as Odysseus made that unfinished game work a lot better (Playing basically any RPG that allows you as Odysseus is a solid plan actually. There's a reason he's the most beloved of the ancient Greek heroes. Only issue is they rarely give you a Penelope)

The guys who wrote Exodus have got to go down with the biographers of Caligula and Reconstruction era Southern Historians as the biggest historical slanderers of all time

Slightly diminish a book: The At One Point and Probably For A While Longer King

Nuremberg has been called the bratwurst capital of the world. Nürnberger Bratwürste are truly special, from their size (about the same as a finger), special recipe (marjoram is key) and history (we've been eating them since 1313)! Learn more at the link.

The purpose of art is not to provide things like mood, character, humor, visual interest, or satire. The purpose of art is to reveal what was in that folder from season 3 episode 6.

Some of the people interviewed are three-time Trump voters who nonetheless consider themselves political independents who distrust both parties, in case you needed another reminder of what that actually means

The biggest of all the Medieval Guy copes is pretending medieval art wasn't hot garbage compared to before and after

Ian Fleming's weird love of Scrambled Eggs iactually a bit distracting when you read em

probably not a good sign for humanity writ large to have created a huge financial incentive structure for people to be aggressively antisocial and antagonistic in public for money and make clear that that's a viable career path

you've heard about the New Soviet man. Behold the New American man. He is all in on baseball cards, has violently strong opinions on cartoons, comic book movies, and video games (and none on literature), and his deepest aspiration is to become rich by being a Prank Influencer

lmao "Bottomless pit of hallucinations and thrashing self destruction". Mean but I saw like two of those guys just driving my gf to my place today.

“Ed Wood” popped up on TCM this week. Ben Mankiewicz was very kind in his intro.

This book is absolutely incredible and you should read it. I was not aware they published it over in Japan apparently but let that be a sign of how good it is
